Child mental health refers to the emotional, psychological, and social well-being of children and adolescents. It covers things like how your children handle emotions, deal with challenges, and the ability for them to form healthy relationships.

Understanding Child Mental Health is key to nurturing resilient and thriving young minds. When children have positive mental health, it sets them up for healthy development, resilience in tough times, and the ability to tackle life's hurdles. It's like giving them a strong foundation for a bright future.

This is why we need to prioritize fostering a positive mental health environment for our children!

We had the privilege of meeting with Damilola Arotiba, the project lead of Real Talks, and it was an insightful experience.

Earlier, Ilera'a Mi had the opportunity to collaborate with Real Talks on engaging pupils in s*x education and menstrual hygiene. The impact was evident as 141 pupils, along with the school head, staff, and fellows, attended and actively participated. The session emphasized the importance of body safety, empowering the pupils to take ownership and prioritize their well-being. Damilola's dedication to child health, s*x education for children and teens, and body safety is truly remarkable. It was a great moment indeed.

Thank you Damilola Arotiba for sharing your quality time with us.

We can bet that most classes in a public primary school, especially in rural communities, have at least one child with white flakes on his/her head.

𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 !!🗣️
Today, we're tackling a common skin challenge that targets Nigerian children in public schools: ringworm, or as the children in a public school in Ijebu Ode call it, "làpálàpá." 😁

🌿 𝑪𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑪𝒐𝒅𝒆: 𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕'𝒔 𝑹𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒎 𝑨𝒍𝒍 𝑨𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕?

Ringworm of the scalp (tinea capitis) is a rash caused by a fungal infection. It usually causes itchy, scaly, bald patches on the head. It loves to leave its mark with those red, circular rashes on our kids' precious skin.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 💥
At Ìlera'a Mi, we advocate for prevention over cure.
✅ Promote good hygiene practices: Teach children to wash their hands and body regularly, keeping their skin clean and dry.
✅ Sharing isn't always caring: Advise kids not to share personal items like towels, combs, and hats to prevent the spread of ringworm.
✅ Educate about close contact: Help children understand the importance of avoiding contact with infected individuals or animals.
✅ Teachers speak to parents to be aware of the barbing salons they send their children to, and if they cut their children's hair themselves, they shouldn't reuse blades.

💥 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐄𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬:
📍Antifungal Avengers: Over-the-counter creams with powerful ingredients like clotrimazole, miconazole, or terbinafine can be your sidekick against mild ringworm. Just follow the instructions and complete the recommended treatment course.
📍Seeking Reinforcements: If the battle intensifies, consult healthcare professionals for prescription medication or stronger topical treatments.
📍Dry and Clean: Remember, keeping the affected area clean and dry is crucial to halt the spread and ensure a speedy victory!
📍The application of natural remedies such as coconut oil, Aloe Vera or Turmeric can also be helpful.

Today, we celebrate the incredible fathers who have shaped our lives and filled our hearts with love. From teaching us life lessons to providing guidance and support, you have been there every step of the way.

But on this special day, we want to remind all the dads about the importance of taking care of their health. You've always been our rock, our superhero, and now it's time to prioritize your own well-being too.

Remember, dear fathers, that you are the pillars of strength in our lives. Your health matters just as much as your unwavering dedication to your family. Take time to nourish your body, mind, and soul, because when you're healthy, you can continue to be the superhero we all look up to.

Whether it's going for a morning jog, trying out a new hobby, or scheduling regular check-ups, let this Father's Day serve as a reminder to make your health a priority. You deserve to live a long, happy, and fulfilling life, surrounded by the love and admiration of your family.

So today, we celebrate not only the incredible fathers we have, but also their well-being. Take a moment to appreciate your own strength, cherish the love you've received, and commit to taking care of yourself, just as you've always taken care of us.

Happy Father's Day! ❤️

Finding resource materials tailored to the needs of the children in our community was one of the challenges we faced when we set out to start the Ìlera'a Mi project.

It was tiresome looking for materials and having to see names like Lindy or Charlie or to talk of vegetables for kids to eat and you'd see broccoli and asparagus…No offense but all my kids know is ẹfọ 🤷

Creating health education content tailored for children living in rural Nigeria is of utmost importance. These children often encounter unique challenges and require targeted educational materials that address their specific needs. By tailoring the content to their context, culture, and language, we can ensure its relevance and effectiveness in promoting their well-being.

In rural areas, children face distinct health-related challenges such as limited access to healthcare facilities, sanitation issues, and prevalent diseases. Tailored health education content empowers them to understand these challenges and make informed decisions about their health. By providing accessible and age-appropriate materials, we equip these children with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate their unique circumstances and promote healthier lifestyles.

Furthermore, customized educational resources for children in rural Nigeria bridge the educational gap and contribute to the overall development of these communities. By addressing their specific needs, we can empower them with the tools to overcome health-related obstacles, ensuring a brighter and healthier future for all.

This challenge was what birthed the idea of creating our resource, from our health activity book to our wash your hands' posters. These are just the tip of the iceberg.

We hope that one day, you'll walk into a Nigerian school library and find books with Nigerian characters addressing issues faced by Nigerian kids most engagingly.

Let's join hands in creating and disseminating tailored health education content that empowers children in rural Nigeria. Together, we can make a positive impact, bridge the educational divide, and promote healthier communities. 💪📚🌟

We proudly celebrate yet another milestone, marking our 10th successful school visitation. Reflecting on the remarkable journey we have embarked upon since our inception, we extend our deepest gratitude to all those who have supported Ìlera'a Mi in realizing its vision.

As we relentlessly strive to ensure that every child receives essential health education, we take immense pride in announcing our recent accomplishment of covering an additional local government. We extend heartfelt appreciation to Fajinmi Toluwalagbara , who wholeheartedly embraced our vision and graciously invited the Ìlera'a Mi team to her esteemed institution.

Our voyage led us to the town of Ijebu-Imushin, where we had the privilege to educate the pupils of Moslem Nursery and Primary School, located on Esure Road, Ijebu-Imusin, Ijebu-East, Ogun State. The topics covered encompassed vital aspects of health, including dental and oral hygiene, the significance of handwashing, blood groups, and genotypes.

The event was filled with enthusiasm and proved to be a momentous occasion. The pupils and staff of the school actively engaged in discussions, sharing valuable insights on the importance of health education. To enhance the learning experience, we incorporated interactive games and practical demonstrations, making the teachings both memorable and captivating.

We were honored to be graced by the presence of the school headteacher, the assistant headteacher, esteemed faculty members, Teach For Nigeria Fellows, and Alumni of Teach For Nigeria. Their participation added immense value to the event and reaffirmed the collective commitment to empowering young minds through health education.

The significance of fostering good health among children cannot be overstated, as the knowledge they acquire today will shape their future lifestyles. We are profoundly grateful for the opportunity to positively impact lives through this noble endeavor.

Ìlera'a Mi remains resolute in its mission to promote health education and continue transforming the lives of children.
